As I was writing my degree dissertation about the Moorish occupation of Spain a visit to one of the most famous mosques in the world was a must for me. It is a visit which I will never forget as the mosque is more beautiful than I could ever imagine. The mosque in Córdoba is a must-see monument in Spain as pictures in brochures just don't do justice to its elegance and innovative design. The red and white horseshoe arches provide an airy feel to the place and allow for intended contemplation and prayer. Don't miss both the Patio de los Naranjos with its cleansing fountains and orange trees blooming underneath the cathedral belfry tower (which you can sometimes climb for views of the mosque and Córdoba) and the mihrab inside the mosque - the marble design of which has been copied throughout Spain and north Africa.

Corregidor, Córdoba - a 15 min walk or bus ride from the bus station which is situated to the north of the city centre. Entrance fee is 6.50 euro.
Opening hours: April-Sept, Mon-Sat 10am-7.30pm, Sun 2-7.30pm. Oct-March, Mon-Sat 10am-5.30pm, Sun 2-6.30pm.
